Whether you’re a freelance language teacher, a teacher trainer, or working in ELT in any capacity, this conversation offers an honest look at burnout — and how we can begin to move toward balance.
In this latest Earn Learn Thrive LinkedIn Live, I’m speaking with Ana Jereb, teacher trainer, language coach, and certified health coach. We explore why burnout is so common in our field, what role overgiving and blurred boundaries often play, and what practical changes can help.
Ana brings both personal experience and professional insight, drawing on her work supporting teachers to build healthier, more sustainable working lives.
Here’s what we cover:
- Why so many teachers struggle to set boundaries (and what they really are)
- How mindset, self-awareness, and small habit shifts can lead to long-term change
- The impact of modelling self-care for our students — not just managing our own energy
